Sounds like it needs a good cleaning, reformat and install everything from fresh with new drivers and all that, giove you a nice clean base and should speed it up again.

If your start and search pages on Internet Explorer change on a daily basis to point to random web sites, then you have the StartPage-W virus, like I have.
I've got the latest version of McAfee VirusScan, and the stupid thing still won't get rid of it!
I think I'll try and find out what is being run on my PC that changes the registry keys for Internet Explorer (as this is what the virus - read trojan horse - does) and delete the fucker myself!
